#330 - Don't Like Pandemic Wrinkles

​Charlie Turns One Month

I had to get a photo with Charlotte. It was her birthday today.

Ugh! Where did those wrinkles come from? What a contrast to Charlie's soft, smooth skin!

What's to Blame?

Covid or Cancer? The first pic was taken right before the pandemic worries set in a year ago. Maybe the lighting was just good.

The second photo was taken weeks before I was diagnosed with cancer. That was almost 5 years ago, but still! Cancer treatments took their toll and then worries of Covid added more wrinkles. 

Who Cares?

But I don't really care about those wrinkles. I don't have to stare at myself. 

Someday when Charlotte is older, maybe she'll notice my wrinkles. Maybe she'll wiggle my wobbly upper arms. My grandmother patiently let me do that!

I'm Safe!

For a while I'm safe! Charlie is seeing me through a her Infant Filter!

Even when she's a year, she'll see a more youthful grandma!

Celebrating!

Really, I'm not focused on wrinkles today. We just have a couple more days with this sweet one.

I'm absorbing what I can with my eyes and ears and touch. She makes the most lovely cooing sounds!

Happy Pi Day and Birthday!

We celebrated Charlotte's first month birthday, with a bunny puppet and pie!

Charlotte was born on Valentine's Day and she turned One Month, on National Pi Day!

I love celebrations!
